Intro
Kazuya’s base combo game is very simple and will include very few reads. Adding gaps into his combos can add more damage that can be used to avoid certain routes or just for style.

Loops
Done with mash toggle set to air dodge with random DI in, away, or none.
Can only be started when EWGF hits the opponent when they are on the ground. The dash forward is to cover DI.
On some characters, doing the ToD is a lot harder than normal. Mizushi loops will help with that. https://twitter.com/mizushiryuken/status/1441277377074450440?s=19

Other Combos, Frame Traps, and 50/50s
DFTilt1/EWGF > Jab
Kazuya can combo DFTilt into Jab. Kazuya can also combo EWGF into Jab by hitting jab before the stun effect ends. Jab 2 is +5 on hit (at 0%), leaving 3 frames for the opponent to act if Kazuya goes for EWGF afterwards. This means that the opponent can only go for shield or spotdodge to not get hit by EWGF. This makes doing DFTilt/EWGF > Jab 1 2 > grab a 50/50. Either spotdodge the grab or risk waiting to get out of Kazuya’s spotdodge read. A way to beat the opponent spotdodging is to either wait or do DSmash. Of course, if the opponent is not ready to escape, doing EWGF > Jab 1 2 > EWGF > Jab 1 2 > repeat will make a funny clip.
